Hi everybody! I'm Colleen McDaniel, Editor-in-Chief of Cruise Critic.

We are onboard Celebrity Apex as it's sailing through Greece.

Today I want to talk to you about suites. There are so many perks associated with staying in suites, including exclusive access to Luminae, which is a wonderful restaurant onboard and offers excellent food. But my favorite perks with staying in suites are access to The Retreat Sundeck and The Retreat Lounge.

Now as you can see, The Retreat Sundeck is something pretty spectacular. It comes with a pool, hot tub, bar and plenty of sun beds and lounge chairs.

The Retreat Lounge is a beautiful space indoors that has all sorts of nooks and crannies for spending your day reading, relaxing and enjoying your day at sea. It also has its own bar, plus grab and go options so you can grab a soft drink or a water and take it with you wherever you're going.

So if you're sailing Celebrity Apex, you may want to consider splurging on a suite.

Thanks for watching, and please come back because we're going to have more videos.
